@clubman I love this idea. I have previously had a few false starts with the same idea but it didn't take off. I'd start this right now to be honest it but I'm outside London now and so most of the important admin (and more importantly riding) I wouldn't be able to make.
This (above) is part of YAL's reply to my post suggesting an HDiJ CC (post 41 in this thread).
A club needs at least one person to be active in promoting the club and its activities. The obvious people to do this are YAL and me, but YAL is too far away and I'm really too old.
In my case, although I'm still actively riding, I'm no longer really up to the sort of efforts that I hope the club would exist to promote. So far as admin is concerned, I just haven't enough energy to take on a big new commitment, although it's hard to say how much trouble would be involved.
However if some one else is prepared to take the main job on, I'd be very pleased to help where I could.
I know the word committee is not really an 'approved' word on this forum, but all the same if we said the after ride beers on Saturday is also the first committee meeting of the HDiJ CC that might be a useful start and wouldn't really involve any serious commitment.
Anyway I hope to see you on Saturday. I'll bring a track pump, a pair of spare wheels and some tools.
If there's anything specific you think I should have with me, let me know.
